Joule and calory are two different units for energy. "Quanta" is unrelated; it's the plural of "quantum".
A calorie is greater - it is equal to about 4.2 joules.
A calorie equals approximately 4.18 joules. To convert calories to joules, multiply by 4.18 To convert joules to calories, divide by 4.18
The Calorie.
a joule is smaller 1 kcal = 4.184 kj
1 joule is equal to 0.238902957619 calories.The calorie is a before SI metric unit of energy.The joule is a unit of energy or work in the International System of Units. It is equal to the energy expended, or work done in applying a force of one newton through a distance of one Meter.

Technically, there is no difference because both are measured and calculated in the same way. The only difference is how they occur or appear in nature.
No, the calorie is an older unit. The SI unit is the Joule.
A factor of 10 million. 1 joule = 10,000,000 ergs 1 erg = 0.000 000 1 joule
The two main units of Energy are the Joule and the Calorie. The Joule is normally represented as the KiloJoule (kJ), which is equivelent to 1000 J. The Calorie is represented as Kcal. 2000 Kcal (calories) is given as the Guideline Daily Allowance for most adults. 1 calorie = 4.184 J or equivalently, 1 kcal = 4.184 kJ Google calculator: http://www.google.com/search?q=1+calorie+in+joules&btnG=Search Wiki Joule entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule Wiki Calorie entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calorie
